Sheet metal gauge 40 41.
Sheet metal thickness gauges for steel are based on a weight of 41 82 pounds per square foot per inch of thickness.
A gauge conversion chart can be used to determine the actual thickness of sheet metal in inches or millimeters.
For example 18 gauge steel according to a gauge conversion chart is 0 0478 inch or 1 214 millimeter.
For other materials such as aluminum and brass the thicknesses will be different.
This is known as the manufacturers standard gage for sheet steel.
The following sheet metal gauge size reference chart gives the weight and thickness of sheet metal given as a gauge sometimes spelled gage and indicates the standard thickness of sheet metal and wire for most materials as the gauge number increases the material thickness.

Steel sheet metal tolerances.
Sheet metal gauge size chart gauge or gage sizes are numbers that indicate the thickness of a piece of sheet metal with a higher number referring to a thinner sheet.
Processing may include polishing or the applying of protective plastics which will decrease or increase a sheet s thickness respectively.
Use the chart below to convert standard gauge numbers in decimals of an inch for sheet steel aluminum and stainless steel.
The equivalent thicknesses differ for each gauge size standard which were developed based on the weight of the sheet for a given material.
